Puttering along

[Dag]

It's been going on long enough I'm thinking of torturing the bastards before I kill them.

I may subject them to tapes of Hillary speaking.

They wouldn't believe anything she says either.

[Browndog]

Oldster-

Impressive patience. Can't wait to read about your exploits once the governor is taken off.

[Oldster]

Thanks, dog!

I can't wait until certain this sucker is healed and I can turn the brown dogs loose!

[Mark E. Hurling]

They wouldn't believe anything she says either.

No, but the screeching would probably scare them all the way to Idaho.

[Patrick Stroup]

Awesome great to see you're steady building! You use the 110's for 3x15?! Great gravy that's awesome.

[Oldster]

Thanks, Patrick. Can't wait until I can go heavy with them!

Wife has been sick and today I had to run her into town to the Doc. Of course, just when I was beginning to lift. Today is the second day of ab wheels and there was little elbow pain, although a little.

[Oldster]

After years of packing heavy loads down steep mountainsides and side hills, my doc finally diagnosed my right knee pain as osteoarthritis. I'm trying to go easy on squatting until the pain subsides.

I'll try going heavy one week and light the next for my FSs. It's worked in the past, years ago when squatting really heavy. We'll see how it goes now as I enter middle-age....

[Oldster]

I'm back! 5 days with a fever and then it dropped into my chest. Even the chest cold is starting to recede in only 9 days. That is unheard of from pneumonia boy! :

I started low and plan on this time working up high. High being relative with a bum elbow... I'm going to abbreviate a bit more and focus on just a few movements.

I think I started about right. Lots of power is beginning to be developed. I'm starting to think perhaps I might handle some good weight in the future.

[Meshuggah]

Nice work, show us how it's done.

Oldster, you're not just strong for your age, you're strong for any age. Remarkable!
